About the Author:
Black Earl
From Library Journal:
Earl Black is Herbert S. Autrey Professor of Political Science at Rice University.Black Merle
Merle Black is Asa G. Candler Professor of Politics and Government at Emory University.
An earlier work of political scientists Earl and Merle Black examined the relationship between social and political change in the South ( Politics and Society in the South , Harvard Univ. Pr., 1987). In their latest book, the authors focus on presidential elections and the South's role in them, especially since Lyndon Johnson's Great Society programs of the 1960s. They find a solidly Republican South that has served as a dependable base for the victorious campaigns of Nixon, Reagan, and Bush. The Blacks argue that for Democratic candidates to have a realistic chance of competing effectively with their opponents nationally, they must develop broader electoral support in the South. In particular, Democratic candidates will need to not only retain the support of black and core white Democrats, but they must also find ways of reaching out to white Southern moderates. A necessary addition to university library political science collections.
